Use Unleaded Gasoline
Unleaded gasoline with a Pump Octane
Rating of 87 (Research Octane Number
91) or higher must be used in Hyundai
vehicle. If leaded gasoline is used, it
will cause the catalytic converter to
become ineffective and the emission
control system to malfunction.
This can also result in increased main-
tenance expense. To avoid accidental
use of leaded fuel, the large nozzle
used with leaded gasoline at service
stations can not be inserted into the
fuel tank opening of Hyundai vehicle.
NOTE:
o For some countries, Hyundai ve-
hicles are designed to use leaded
gasoline. When you are going to
use leaded gasoline, ask to
Hyundai dealer whether leaded
gasoline in your vehicle is avail-
able or not.
o Octane Rating of leaded gaso-
line is same with unleaded one.

What About Gasohol?
Gasohol (a mixture of 90% unleaded
gasoline and 10% ethanol or grain
alcohol) may be used in your Hyundai.
However, if your engine develops drive
ability problems, the use of 100% un-
leaded gasoline is recommended. Fu-
els with unspecified quantities of alco-
hol, or alcohols other than ethanol,
should not be used.

Do not Use Methanol
Fuels containing methanol (wood al-
cohol) should not be used in your
Hyundai. This type of fuel can reduce
vehicle performance and damage com-
ponents of the fuel system.
!
CAUTION:
Your Hyundai's New Vehicle Lim-
ited Warranty may not cover dam-
age to the fuel system and perfor-
mance problems that are caused by
the use of methanol or fuels con-
taining methanol.
